King Solomon

Through wisdom your days will be many, and years will be added to your life_By wisdom a house is built, by understanding it is established; And by knowledge the rooms are filled with all precious and pleasant riches.

An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered.

As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend.

Start with God - the first step in learning is bowing down to God only fools thumb their noses at such wisdom and learning.
